This year, 2008, represents
the 100th anniversary of the construction of the historic Hotel
Bentley. Located on 3rd Street in downtown Alexandria, Louisiana,
the hotel stands as a historic monument of Alexandria of the
20th Century.
This Web site celebrates the elegant
past of the hotel, and hopefully will serve as a place where
all of us can share our
memories of this historic building. Included are photographic
images, historic
postcards, and Bentley
artifacts & memorabilia, all of which provide a great "looking
glass" to the past.
The site is an extension of the
Web sites of the Louisiana
History Museum and the Alexandria
Retrospective, both of which are dedicated to preserving
the history of Alexandria.
